4. If you want to sing out, sing out - Harold and MaudeYusuf Islam, formerly Cat Stevens, wrote the soundtrack for the film Harold and Maude 1971. Selected clip is Ruth Gordon and Bud Cort singing “If You Want to Sing Out” from the film

5. Mae West sings “I'm an Occidental Woman in an Oriental Mood for Love” from the 1936 film Klondike Annie. In the film, West's character is a wayward Frisco woman who gets herself into trouble but assumes the identity of a dead missionary, committing herself to following through with the virtuous deeds of her newly assumed identity, transforming sinners by using her street-smarts and wit (a tantric crazy wisdom message, delivered the way only Mae West could.).

As a neophyte Vamp, West was a great inspiration to me. For my 16th birthday, I had the privilege of meeting her (what a rite of passage!). She gave me her stamp of approval. A rarity, I was told. For she was not fond of many women.

7. Klaus Nomi: In his last live performance, before his death, singing “The Cold Song” composed by Henry Purcell.

8. Daniel Johnston: “Held the Hand (of Satan)” 1990This song best conveys the mood in my life circa 1990, at the finale of my media notoriety as High Priestess of the Church of Satan, during the Christian fundamentalist witch hunt in the U.S. before resigning from that position and leaving the U.S.. It should be noted that this reflects the year this Daniel Johnston song came out, long before he'd become the Hipsters' darling he's known as today.To learn more about Daniel Johnston, visit: http://www.hihowareyou.com/

9. Carl Orff's “O Fortuna” from “Carmina Burana” performed by U.C. Davis University Chorus, Alumni Chorus, Symphony Orchestra and Pacific Boychoir, Jeffrey Thomas conducting followed by a clip from “Ein Kleines Welttheater” featuring the closing scene from Carl Orff's “Der Mond: Oh da hangt den Mond” based on the fairy tale by the Brothers GrimmI chose this fantastic, bombastic rendition of “O Fortuna” not only because it's good, but because it's performed in part by one of my many former workplaces, U.C. Davis! I also chose this particular video because it coincidentally combines two of Carl Orff's compositions which I encorporated into personal rites in the months after leaving the U.S. while living in Vienna.

10. Egyptian born, American electronic music innovator Halim El-Dabh performs “The Expression of Zaar” a.k.a., "Wire Recorder Piece" (1944).The earliest use of tape sampling as experimental electronic music, this piece consists of recorded sounds of an ancient zaar ceremony (a ritual of possession, usually by a woman or effeminate man, practiced in Ethiopia, Northern Sudan and Southern Iran). This ceremony was recorded using very early wire recording devices then manipulated, processed and re-recorded for the desired tonal quality. The completed piece was presented in 1944 at an art gallery event in Cairo.To learn more about Halim El-Dabh, visit: http://www.halimeldabh.com/ To learn more about the Zār cult and ritual, visit: http://www.iranicaonline.org/articles/zar
